History

Bumi Armada was incorporated in 1995 and first went public in 1997.[3][4] It became the first Malaysian company to own and operate a floating production storage and offloading (FPSO) vessel with the commissioning of Armada Perkasa in 1997.[4] Armada Perkasa was originally a 1975 Panamax-sized tanker with a storage capacity of 360,000 barrels of crude oil which was converted to service the Bunga Kekwa field.[4]

It subsequently acquired five more FPSOs—Armada Perdana (2009), Armada TGT1 (2011), Armada Sterling (2012), Armada Claire (2014), and Armada Sterling II (2014).[4][5]

It was acquired by Ananda Krishnan in 2002 and taken private the following year.[6] In 2011, the company was re-listed in Malaysia's biggest initial public offering of that year, raising RM2.66 billion (US$889 million).[6][7]
